With no cure, many live only two to three years after diagnosis. In efforts to fund research toward a cure, award-winning actress and dedicated Pulmonary Fibrosis Foundation (PFF) advocate Julie Halston hosted Broadway Belts for PFF! Uniting some of Broadway’s best vocal talent, patrons and key members of the PF community, the sold-out event was a night of spectacular entertainment, which raised more than $150,000 to benefit the PFF.
